Capital Revenue down 9% to

m $30

While sales to end customers increased during the year, overall capital revenue decreased reflecting:

A reduction in the number of units purchased by GE Healthcare compared with the prior corresponding period. This reduction was due to significant destocking in H2 of FY18, resulting from the earlier than anticipated FDA approval of trophon2 and the subsequent restocking of inventory of trophon2 in FY19 upon the launch of trophon2; and

A delay in capital sales to customers during Q4 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.

In the first three quarters of the year, revenue was up 39% on prior corresponding period. In Q4, a reduction in the volume of ultrasound procedures was experienced due to COVID-19 restrictions. Despite this reduction in ultrasound procedures, consumables and service revenue grew 29% in Q4 compared to prior corresponding period.

In June, as hospital departments resumed activities in many markets, global sales of consumables to end customers trended back to approximately 80% of Q1 to Q3 levels.
